I want to watch it because I want it to succeed, but feel bad that I’ve been too busy. Have there been any recent reports about continued viability?
I think one of the biggest indicators of sustainability is attendance and... uhhh... It's bad. Building cap: San Antonio: 64,000 Orlando: 44,000 San Diego: 70,500 Birmingham: 71,500 Memphis: 58,000 Atlanta: 24,300 Salt Lake: 45,800 Arizona: 57,000
It’s not fair to say that the Fleets capacity is 70k. They would honestly consider it “full” if it was closer to 40k. Which is a more than large crowd for San Diego State. Both teams will always look bad since the top will never have seats sold in that area.
Overall, I think the top three teams have really impressive numbers. Its mostly those college towns that are dead in the water.
I'm still all for Trent taking home the MVP. His goaline work is fantastic and he's been dragging defenders with him. Don't care that his YPC is total trash. Let the man be an AAF legend.
Yeah, three teams seem viable. The college towns or places w pro teams (ATL, Arizona) prob weren’t good choices in the first place. I think if they move to more B-list cities without pro teams, like Portland or Oklahoma City, they would be better off. Got to be Garrett Gilbert. Trent isn’t even top-5 rushing.
In what world would NFL teams give up young talent to go play in the AAF? It's definitely going to fold. EDIT: Oh they want practice squad players. Still tho...
